Documenting Quality Policy & Quality Objectives

Answer:

Normally, the Quality Policy is included in the Quality Manual. Nevertheless, the Quality Policy should be, also, a stand-alone document if there are employees that have no access to the Quality Manual. Normally, the Quality Objectives are not included in the Quality Manual because they can change every year. There are no requirements against including them in the Quality Manual it is just the practical side of having to change it frequently that stops most of the people of doing it.
